Public bug reported:
usr/share/doc/ddclient/examples/sample-etc_ddclient.conf.gz shows the
correct and working syntax like:
server=members.dyndns.org, \
protocol=dyndns2 \
your-dynamic-host.dyndns.org
basically each entry one one line, comma-separated, host at the end.
dpkg-reconfigure ddclient produces, however:
server=members.dyndns.org
protocol=dyndns2
your-dynamic-host.dyndns.org
Same holds true during installation.
This renders the configuration script useless und requires manual
checking for IP updates. Wrong IP, however, can lead to security
problems.
This behaviour I can reproduce reliably at any time on all of my 10
ubuntu systems.
